New Record of a Naidid Oligochaete Species, Ripistes parasita (Annelida: Clitellata: Naididae) from Korea [PDF]
Animal Systematics, Evolution and Diversity, 2012 An aquatic oligochaete species, Ripistes parasita (Schmidt, 1847) collected from Ganghwado Island in Korea, is described and illustrated. Specimens inhabiting on aquatic vegetation at the edge of the streams were collected with a plankton hand net ...

Gaps and Data Ambiguities in DNA Reference Libraries: A Limiting Factor for Molecular-Based Biodiversity Assessments Using Annelids as a Case Study. [PDF]
Ecol EvolRegional DNA reference libraries are crucial for molecular biodiversity assessments, yet they remain incomplete, limiting their effectiveness. Using annelids from the Arabian Peninsula as a case study, we identified considerable gaps in species coverage and minimal representation in public databases.

Reintroduced White Storks (<i>Ciconia ciconia</i>) Have Similar Diets to Their Wild Conspecifics. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe explored the dietary composition and compared pellet morphology using pellet analysis (n = 23) between two White Stork (Ciconia ciconia) groups to assess reintroduction effectiveness that consisted of released individuals that were free flying (i.e., “wild group”) and those kept within a confined enclosure (“captive group”). We found that 60% of the

Multiple environmental controls explain global patterns in soil animal communities [PDF]
, 2020 Soil animals play important roles in ecosystem functioning and stability, but the environmental controls on their communities are not fully understood. In this study, we compiled a dataset of soil animal communities for which the abundance and body mass ...
